Tool needed. Not in rental list.

Hi everyone, I recently discovered that my 91 420SEL's starter wouldn't turn the engine over anymore. The starter is good because I changed it 2 weeks ago. I then changed the battery with my Volvo's...

The decals on my car might be different because it's a 1991. I know the W140's never came with these decals. I had to buy their minimum quantity which happened to be equal to every W124 and w1126 in...

Warning Radio Alarm stickers .

I have finally gotten hold of the illusive NLA radio warning labels that are in the rear door triangle windows of the W124 and W126 models. It always bothered me because they were always cracking and...

This might be a possible answer for this issue.

If you check this video you'll see at 0:46 that the blower resistor on this W126 coupe has been moved to a more sexier location. It's safe there and it'll always get hit by air from fan and no leave...

What about running a cable from the negative battery post to the engine ?

That's true about W124 and W126's that they are cheap because they are neglected. That's how I got my 89' 300E and 88' 560SEL. I don't mind the work that has to be done because it's always rewarding...

The junction block is exactly

the same as on yours with 2 posts. I'm sure the arrangement for connecting wires would be the same on a W126. I did take pictures before taking off the wiring but since the wires had 10 inches of MB...
